A few days ago, my buddies at IT Gilde were issued a challenge by the PvIB (Platform voor Informatie Beveiliging), a dutch platform for IT security professionals. On October 6th, PvIB is holding their annual pen-testing event and they asked us to join in the fun. I've never partaken in anything of the sorts and feel that, as long as I keep calling myself "Unix and Security consultant", I really ought to at least get introduced to the basics of the subject :)
So here we go! I'm very much looking forward to an evening full of challenges!
The PvIB folks warn to not have any sensitive or personal materials on the equipment you'll use during the event, so I went with Mark Janssen's recommendation and bought a cheap Lenovo S21e-20 notebook. I'll probably upgrade that thing to Windows 10 and load it up with a wad of useful tools :)
